About the Author

Born in a small southern town in 1956, Sandra has seen a lot in her almost sixty years. She saw segregation at its worst and lived through watching her family members and friends being treated as if they were less than because of who they were. Sandra always loved to read. Reading took her places that she could only imagine in her mind. After moving to the city, Durham, North Carolina, at about age thirteen, her life changed drastically. Durham was a whole new place and would bring about a lot of life experiences. A mother of three and grandmother of six, she is proud to be the head of her small family, always trying to send the message to them that nothing is more important than family, God, and trying to always do the right thing. Reading a good book into the wee hours of the morning is one of her favorite things do, and she can cook up a mean meal. In fact, cooking is almost a spiritual event for her. When she is spreading the good smells of a home-cooked meal through her home and awaiting her family to come over for dinner, she is at her best. Sandra is a businesswoman and is always striving for ways to make her and her family’s lives better. She is a licensed insurance agent, but most of all, she is a mother who loves her children and grandchildren. She is a writer that finally got the nerve to put her stories on paper.
